Island Tremors

"Flying Slash?"

Seeing this, Iron Hand was greatly alarmed. He quickly dodged to the side, avoiding the slash.

The lackeys behind him were not so lucky. They couldn't dodge in time and were cut in half, blood gushing everywhere!

Iron Hand had some experience. He had once followed a pirate crew on the Grand Line. Although they were destroyed shortly after joining, he was lucky enough to survive.

But that experience allowed him to witness many strong individuals, swordsmen who could unleash Flying Slash, and users of mysterious Devil Fruits!

Their pirate crew had been easily annihilated by a pirate swordsman!

That person could also unleash Flying Slash, and with one person and one sword, he had effortlessly wiped out their pirate crew!

But Iron Hand never imagined that in this remote region of the North Blue, there would be another strong individual capable of unleashing Flying Slash?

Why would someone like that appear in this remote little sea area instead of venturing into the Grand Line?

And... they had attacked them!

Run! Run! Run!

Iron Hand had only this thought in his mind, not even considering resistance.

It was because he had experienced such immense terror!

He was terrified of being killed!

"You have some knowledge! Too bad it won't save your life!" Yun Ye smiled and pointed, White Lightning shooting out, piercing through Iron Hand's forehead.

Iron Hand was dead!

Until his death, he never knew when he had offended this strong individual...

It could only be said that in this world, weakness is the original sin!

"All of you go down and accompany him!"

"Azure Firefall!"

Yun Ye said indifferently, raising his hand, and a pale, explosive flame shot out, engulfing all the members of the Iron Hand Gang!

Way of Destruction #33 - Azure Firefall!

As a rumbling sound echoed, everyone was swept up and covered by the blast wave!

Casualties were heavy, and even those who were lucky couldn't avoid Yun Ye's follow-up attacks.

Thus, the Iron Hand Gang was annihilated!

After eliminating everyone in the Iron Hand Gang, Yun Ye casually glanced around, ignored it, and turned to leave!

Only after Yun Ye left did people begin to appear nearby.

These were the riffraff of the chaotic zone, the refugees who did nothing all day and engaged in petty theft.

They weren't good people, but they didn't have the guts to commit murder and robbery.

Now, looking at the Iron Hand Gang's territory turned into ruins, everyone swallowed their saliva, their expressions filled with extreme shock!

"The Iron Hand Gang has been wiped out!"

"This... I can't believe it, only one person did something so terrifying!"

"Where did this strong individual come from? With one person and one sword, they slaughtered everyone in the Iron Hand Gang!"

"Truly terrifying! Who exactly is this person?"

"..."

The news spread throughout the entire island in a short period!

And not only that, the news of the Evil Wolf Gang's annihilation also became known!

'Boom!'

Everyone who heard this news felt a tremor in their hearts, unable to believe what they were hearing was true!

The reason the news about the Evil Wolf Gang came out later was because their location was relatively remote, and they were the only force there. Normally, no one would go to that area.

Two of the three leading forces in the chaotic zone were wiped out in a short period!

This news sent shockwaves through the entire island!

At the location of the Oli Family, one of the three major powers!

Orleans, the leader of the Oli Family, suddenly stood up and asked the subordinate who delivered the intelligence with surprise, "What did you say? Evil Wolf and Iron Hand were both wiped out? What's going on?"

The subordinate, intimidated by the man's imposing aura, trembled but still braced himself and recounted the news he knew.

"You're saying that only one person, with one person and one sword, annihilated both of these gangs?"

Orleans's expression was one of extreme horror, and he couldn't help but ask again, "Are you telling the truth?"

The subordinate swallowed, but still nodded affirmatively, "Y-yes!"

Orleans's face shifted between expressions. He took a deep breath, and finally narrowed his eyes, saying, "Gather everyone! To deal with the upcoming... situation!!"

"!!!" The subordinate's heart sank like a stone, his face a mixture of fear and surprise. Did the boss mean...?

Could it be...

"What are you still standing around for? Go already!"

Seeing the subordinate make no move, Orleans let out a heavy snort.

"Yes... yes!"

The subordinate quickly retreated, but a shadow of gloom enveloped his heart, filling him with dread.

After the subordinate left, Orleans remained silent for a moment before pulling a Den Den Mushi from his pocket.

"What's going on?"

"Boss... something's happened..."

"..."

Meanwhile, on the other side, in the security district, at the Navy Branch Base P-4.

All high-ranking Navy officials from every branch base were gathered for a meeting regarding the events in the chaotic zone.

The base commander, Lieutenant Colonel Yara, looked at all the officers present and said solemnly, "You all should have heard the news, right? What are your thoughts on the downfall of the Evil Wolf Gang and the Iron Hand Gang?"

A bespectacled officer stood up and said gravely, "Reports indicate that a mysterious person wearing a mask was responsible. As for why they annihilated the Evil Wolf Gang and the Iron Hand Gang, we can't figure it out."

He paused, then continued, "Furthermore, according to the footage from the Den Den Mushi, this person is heading towards the Oli Family!"

This officer was in charge of intelligence and knew more than the others.

Another officer, Navy Major Bruller, wearing a military cap, his eyes flashing with cold light, snorted, "Hmph! The targets were the three major powers of the chaotic zone. Is it a bounty hunter? What a mess!"

The Navy was angry because they felt humiliated.

They had been stationed at this base for so long, yet they hadn't managed to pacify the chaotic zone. Now, someone suddenly appeared and wiped out two of its major powers. How would the residents of the island view them? As useless eaters?

But more importantly—Bruller was not an upright Navy officer. He was a scumbag who had secretly colluded with the Evil Wolf Gang, profiting immensely from it!!

Yun Ye's actions had encroached upon his territory, which was why he was so furious!

"I propose we head to the Oli Family's stronghold and capture that mysterious person and everyone from the Oli Family!" Bruller suggested, his eyes gleaming with coldness.

Yara glanced at Bruller and waved his hand, "No need to rush. We have too little information about this mysterious person. Besides, we don't know if they are friend or foe. Let's not create a more terrifying enemy than the three major powers out of impulse!"

As he spoke, Yara took out a piece of intelligence from his drawer and said calmly, "Moreover, intelligence from other branches suggests that the Oli Family might have other forces supporting them from behind..."

After speaking, Yara slapped the intelligence onto the board behind him!

"What?"

"The Oli Family has backing? Who could it be?"

Everyone was stunned by this revelation. They looked at the intelligence on the board, which clearly stated—

[It is highly possible that the Vinsmoke Family is behind the Oli Family. Intelligence indicates that a secret experimental facility of the Vinsmoke Family is hidden beneath Donzuke Island. It is extremely dangerous, and must be treated with utmost seriousness!]

At first, these Navy officers displayed an indifferent attitude.

However, when they saw the words "Vinsmoke Family," more than half of them gasped, their pupils contracting sharply, filled with shock.

These individuals shared a common trait: they were all native residents of the North Blue!
